Chiang Mai Flood water comes from Mae Ngat Dam and Mae Taeng River, as well as other tributaries upstream. Mae Ngat’s full name is Mae Ngat Somboon Chon Dam and currently 7 October) stated to be at 90% full. After flying over the Mae Ngat area, I check out the Mae Taeng Irrigation Project to the west of Mae Taeng 107 road and look at the huge water holding ponds that have been developed over recent years, as well as chatting to 2 happy ladies fishing in the swollen river, successfully catching fish with their Lift Nets. I also visit the huge land mark construction of a new Chedi at Wat Pa Mu Mai, a monastic retreat set in the forest close to the Mae Taeng River.
